This is my card for IC299 which was to be inspired by the Urbanrose Etsy Store. I had enough time today to not just grab a sample, but actually look through this awesome site. I picked several that I love, but chose this photo locket to be inspired by.
I started with a piece of gold CS, inked up an Inkadinkado butterfly and some SU Petal Prints leaves, stamped them off twice and stamped my CS.
Then I stamped the SU Best Blossoms leaves and Fancy Pants Designs Flourish with VersaMark and embossed it with fine detail embossing pwd. I think I like it. I hope you do.

Those stamped-off images are wonderful. They remind me of those handmade papers that have pressed flowers or leaves in them; especially with the strong contrast provided by the embossed flourish and leaves over them.
